The list also includes party politicians like Nanjil Sampath, AIADMK's propaganda secretary, S Sasikala Pushpa, Parithi Ilamvazhuthi and Vijila Sathyanand.

In 1986, AIADMK founder MG Ramachandran (MGR) had wanted to nominate Vennira Aadai Nirmala, who made her debut in Tamil movies along with Jayalalithaa, to the Tamil Nadu Legislative Council. However, the plan did not work.

According to AIADMK's statement, the party's star campaigner would begin their campaign from March 11 onwards.
